For the first one:
m is the slope, or how much the line goes up compared to goes right. In this case, the line goes up 40 every time it goes right 10. We write this as a fraction so 40/10, which simplifies to 4. Therefore the equation would be y = 4x.
She has distributed the bracket incorrectly
(64 + 5) - 0.2(- 20 + 10)
=
(69) - 0.2 (- 10)
=34.5 + 2
= 36.5
We know that 12 equals one dozen. It is not asking for a dozen, but for 9 dozen. So, we need to multiply 9 by 12. 9*12 = 108.
It says the rolls of first aid tape were divided equally into 4 boxes. We need to divide these 108 rolls into 4 equal groups, since that is what took place in the problem. So, we divide 108 by 4.
108/4 = 27. There are 27 rolls in each box.
8 (2x - 14) + 13 = 4x -27
distribute 8 through the parentheses
16x - 112 + 13 = 4x - 27
combine like terms
16x - 99 = 4x -27
subtract 4x from each side
12x - 99 = -27
add 99 to each side
12x = 72
divide each side by 12
x = 6
Answer:
the answer to this equation is 2
